Dugout Discussion – Arsenal vs Bournemouth

After Stoke’s narrow win at Vicarage Road, we now make our way to the Emirates as Arsenal entertain Bournemouth at 2.15pm.

Having led the line against PSG in midweek, Olivier Giroud drops back to the bench, despite netting five times in his last five appearances across all competitions.

Alexis Sanchez is stationed up front, then, with his 22% FPL owners looking for an improvement on the form that has seen him score in just one of the previous six Gameweeks.

Certainly, we need the Chilean to step up in a weekend where Liverpool pair Philipp Coutinho and Roberto Firmino, along with Chelsea’s Eden Hazard, failed to deliver the goods.

Utilised off the bench against PSG, Theo Walcott returns to the starting XI, with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain also finding a place in the hosts line-up.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    1. Lecky Legs FC
      • 8 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

      1. Differentiator
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Happy Arter is OK. On the other hand, Sanchez looks seriously dangerous this game

    1. diesel001
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 5 months ago

    Playing Capoue over Wilson....for the one time Wilson does anything!

    Although bit ironic it involves Capoue in the equation.

  30. Jay_
      7 years, 5 months ago

      Sanchez 30
      Walcott 29
      Monreal Wilson 26

      As WR points out, winning goal (currently Walcott) to be added (3bps)

      1. Point-one short
        • 7 Years
        7 years, 5 months ago

        Is it only 3 for winning goal? Thought it was 10...
